He started the suv back on & we where fine. 2nd time I was driving on the interstate [XXX] ) when the car shut off & the dashboard displayed "shift to park". I kept control of the car put the emergency lights on & got of the way. Waited a few minutes & the SUV started back took me home the next day I took it to the dealership they replaced the transmission. I got the car back Friday [XXX] drove it home & on Tuesday [XXX] put 93% gas in the car was on my way back on [XXX] . Stopped at a light with my grandson in the car & the car started to shake a little shut off again the dash indicated "shift to park" I turned the car on & off a few times finally after about 5 mins it started & I was on to my destination. At my destination I turned the car on 3 times. Started with out a problem. Got on the road headed back home. At the same spot, the car shut down again for the 3rd time. Dash again stating I need to "shift to park". This is the very dangerous. I had the car towed to the Jeep dealership & there it is waiting on a diagnosis as to what is wrong with my Beautiful 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Please find a way to fix this issue. I dont want to get into a serious car accident because of this crazy issue. thank you. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Faulty transmission that breaks before 90K miles

I was driving back home and was travelling at around 30miles/hr on a street. All of a sudden my car dashboard started flashing and all the indicators in the dashboard started to flash.. The vehicle started to accelerate and brake at the same time... The engine made a strange weird sound. I had to put the emergency parking lights and pull over slowly. Luckily I was closer to home, so drove back home with the hazard lights on.. The car moved very slowly with the engine accelerating and braking at the same time. Next day, I had the car towed to the dealership and they also saw the same issue. They indicated the Throttle Control Module was behaving erratically and have to re-flash it.

WHEN DRIVING THE MOTOR STARTS RACING AND THE RPM'S GO WAY UP. MOST TIMES IT DOES IT WHEN YOU FIRST TAKE OFF. YOU HAVE TO COME TO A STOP, TURN THE MOTOR OFF AND START ALL OVER. OCCASIONALLY, THIS MAY NOT WORK. THE REPAIRMAN CANNOT FIND OUT WHY BECAUSE IT IS NOT DOING IT WHEN YOU TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALER. NOT EASY TO DEAL WITH WHEN IN TRAFFIC AND IT IS BURNING GAS LIKE CRAZY. IT FIRST DID IT COMING BACK TO NC FROM FLA ON 95 AFTER THE HURRICANE. I DON'T KNOW THE EXACT DAY. MY GIRLFRIEND FOLLOWED ME FROM S.C. TO JACKSONVILLE, N C TO MAKE SURE I GOT HOME WITH IT. HAS DONE IT SEVERAL TIMES RIGHT AFTER I TAKE OFF WITH IT.

DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE IN WY, 70-75MPH, ROLLING TRRAIN, CRUISE CONTROL ON. ALL OF THE SUDDEN THE VEHICLE DE-ACELERATED. THE TRANSMISSION WAS IN AUTOMATIC WHEN THIS OCCURED. BOTH OF MY HANDS ON THE WHEEL WHEN THIS HAPPENED. TRIED TO RE-ACELERATE, BUT THE VEHICLE WAS VERY SLUGGISH. THE GEAR WAS STUCK IN HIGH GEAR, WHICH WOULD NOT CHANGE UNTIL I PULLED OVER, PUT THE GEAR IN PARK, AND THEN IN DRIVE. NO INJURIES, NO DAMAGE, BUT I DON'T WANT THIS TO HAPPEN AGAIN. COULD HAVE BEEN A BADPROBLEM IF I WAS IN HEAVIER TRAFFIC. WHEN I GOT HOME I RECIEVED THE RECALL NOTICE FOR UDDEN ACCELERATION WITH THE CRUISE ON.

TL* THE CONTACT LEASED A 2017 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO REVERSE INTO A PARKING SPACE, THE VEHICLE JERKED VIOLENTLY AND THE CONTACT LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE.

WHILE OPERATING THE SUV IN CRUISE CONTROL, IT WAS NECESSARY TO BRAKE AND RE-ACCELERATE WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE. HOWEVER, UPON PUSHING THE PEDAL TO INCREASE SPEED, IT TOOK BETWEEN 10 TO 20 SECONDS TO INCREASE THE SPEED FROM JUST 60 MPH TO 70 MPH. THIS HAPPENED REPEATEDLY OVER A PERIOD OF 30 MILES. IT WAS VERY CONCERNING AS I WAS NOT ABLE TO CLEAR TRAFFIC PROPERLY. I STOPPED AT A REST STOP AND TRIED TO DO THE SAME ACCELERATION FROM 0 MPG. THIS TIME HOWEVER, THE CAR 'HUNG' AT 5500 RPM'S WHEN I REACHED 75 MPH. I HAD TO MOVE THE GEARSHIFT INTO MANUAL MODE AND BACK TO AND UNHANG IT. I REPORTED THIS TO NATIONAL RENT-A-CAR UPON MY RETURN. I WANT TO MAKE SURE THIS IS REPORTED. I FELT UNSAFE.
